It takes a dozen tokens to put "when you need to do X, run `foo --help` and use it" in your CLAUDE.md.
Plenty of MCPs and plugins and whatnot out there idly consuming 5-25k tokens 24/7. How is that the same?
- anamexis 10mo agoBecause you can enable/disable MCPs and plugins just like you can choose not to include that context in CLAUDE.md . I do it all the time. I have several MCPs configured but only enable them on demand.
